It doesn't need to catch on the screws. The belt can be moved slightly to the right. It might be a good idea to loosen the tension by removing the spring and then line the belt up properly on he teeth of the shaft and more to the right hand side of the jockey wheel. Incidentally that jockey wheel should also be replaced with a newer white one which has a nut on the end, as the older black ones are known for coming loose and wobbling.

Ive just come across this vid, suffered 4 belt failures in 3 years of ownership. Totally agree - poor design! On my next belt replacement - later today, I’m replacing those two screws that impact the belt with mirror dome cap screws to try and resolve this. Fingers crossed.

How do you change the belt? Need to get it on the other side of the fan bar near the pully

Could the screws be changed for dome heads or counter sunk maybe

Could you tape over or cap the screws?

Cover the screws with something smooth it out Hopefully you rectify the design fault that way ?

can you show were the spring is going I can't see, and that's were I'm having the problem

What about taping the belt to the drum so that there is no lateral movement?

Anyone know how to change the belt on these dryers ?

Anybody found a way to fix this permanently?

i can fix it with a mod
